More pronounced volatility seen in the days ahead with G3 central bank "talk" to come

<p>A snippet from Mizuho analysts, looking across the decisions ahead this week from the big 3; the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), the European Central Bank, and then the Bank of Japan.</p><p>Mizuho say that while the actual decisions are (almost certainly) baked in:</p><ul><li>FOMC +25</li><li>ECB +25</li><li>BoJ hold</li></ul><p>the "talk" from these G3 Banks will be far more influential for market direction. </p><ul><li>And the thing about talk having far more influence … is that it sets the stage for more
pronounced volatility; insofar that talk is open to significantly more variance in interpretation (especially
between intend and effect) versus action that is arguably more objective.</li></ul><p>Mizuho expects the USD:</p><ul><li>may come out with an advantage as the bet impact may be from “peak Fed” bets being
forced to adjust for more hikes on the table; and possibly a fairly strong signal of “live” September</li></ul><p>For the EUR:</p><ul><li>the ECB might
have a higher hawkish bar to clear for EUR to continue with unabated rallies </li><li>Although admittedly, President Lagarde’s ability to convey an unflinching commitment to tame inflation could have
unintended consequences of boosting EUR</li></ul><p>For the yen though:</p><ul><li>more likely than not to be on the back foot as higher global yields on both
sides of the Atlantic from hawkish references by the Fed and ECB stands at stark contrast to a patient BoJ that is
not convinced of, and this not responding to, demand-pull inflation risks.</li></ul><p>The ECB and BoJ bosses</p>
